Although the Chunyu Hutong District of Tianhai City is a bungalow area, there is also a well-known snack street nearby. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After passing the restaurant where the dog was lost not long ago, Cao Qiang only glanced at it a few times, and then felt that the headache worsened, and he hurriedly urged the driver to drive faster.
Because it was nearby, he soon came to the intersection of Hutong Street, Cao Qiang pushed the door impatiently and got out of the car, if it wasn't for the driver who grabbed him quickly, the fare would have been forgotten.
Recalling the gathering place, he plunged into the alley, turned left and right, and finally arrived at the snack street.
Ignoring the aroma of frying and stir-frying along the way, he saw from a distance that there were more than a dozen people gathered at the intersection in front of him.
He snorted and gasped when he got closer, only to see clearly that there were men, women and children arguing and discussing, in short, every word was not separated from the dogs, their expressions were either nervous or gloomy, and some of them even had bright eyes, and there was inexplicable excitement in the depths of their eyes.
An old lady dressed in gold and silver kept spinning in circles, stomping her feet and muttering.
"Over the years, when my children are not around, Lele has always been with me, relieving my boredom and making me happy, I have long regarded it as a relative, if I never see it again, I can ...... What can I do? ”
Talking to herself, the old lady burst into tears, and a middle-aged woman with the same sad face on the side saw this and hurriedly comforted her.
"Auntie, don't worry, my baby has been with me for ten years and I have lost it, but I believe that as long as I don't give up, I will definitely be able to get it back."
The words he said were both comforting and comforting, and a young man on the side also interjected.
"We are gathered here, we all regard dogs as their own family, although I did not lose the dog, but I also hate those who kill dogs and eat dogs, you come here to make sense, even if you can't find the dogs, but we destroy a dog-eating den, but also for the world's dogs to do their part, to let everyone know that dogs are human friends, different from other species, we make things big, so that everyone is afraid of us, no one dares to harm dogs anymore."
As he spoke, he saw that everyone else looked at him in agreement, perhaps because he was impressed by himself, and the young man suddenly geared up, and his eyes flashed with fighting spirit.
Cao Qiang should have shouted a few times, but found that the shoelaces on his head were useless, so he angrily ripped them off, rubbed his temples fiercely, and found them in the crowd.
The friend named Wang Wei who called him was talking indignantly to two or three people not far away, and Yu Guang found that Cao Qiang was coming, his eyes lit up, and the confidence in his eyes seemed to be a little more.
"Lao Cao, come on, listen to me." Wang Wei stepped forward a few steps and dragged Cao Qiang aside.
"Just at a junction in front, see no, turn left, there is a den for eating dog meat, I didn't hear about it earlier, otherwise I would have gathered people to come, let's not startle the snake first, and then wait a while, the people will come together, the momentum is loud, we will rush there."
"But hurry, or my last bit of hope may be gone." Cao Qiang cried and stomped his feet, his head was already as serious as a steel nail, and he was about to endure it to the limit.
After a while, some more people came in twos and threes, Wang Wei didn't wait any longer under Cao Qiang's repeated urging, puffed up his chest, put on a fierce and vicious appearance, and led everyone to rush forward, there were people who didn't know the truth along the way, and thought they were going to fight.
A small shop selling tofu brains is facing the street corner of Yu Ji dog meat, and you can clearly see what is happening there from the store.
On the seat by the window in the store, a young man was silently drinking a bowl of tofu brain, looking at the young man with a pair of thick bottle-bottom eyes, wooden appearance, it was not Zhong Ning.
"Well, it's slow." He secretly pursued Cao Qiang here, and he was a little impatient to wait at the moment, and when he entered the store, he ordered a bowl of tofu brain, and let him slip away for an hour, and the little women watching the store on the side began to roll their eyes.
At this time, a group of people finally broke into his sight, including Cao Qiang's grinning face.
They shouted some slogans related to dog care outside the dog meat shop, and immediately seemed to be righteous and awe-inspiring, and in the lead of Wang Wei and a few stunned young people, they were about to break into the store.
Seeing that the dog meat is not stopped, the customers in the store are either scared, or feel unlucky, one by one out of the store, passing by dog lovers, a blank of eyes can not be avoided, and even those who are caught persuading and educated, they are afraid of many people, nodding yes, some feel inexplicable, pale face and hurriedly slip away.
The shopkeeper also came out, this middle-aged man with a beard on his face, he was still angry that the guests were scared away, and he wanted to be shocked, but once he faced so many evil spirits, he was stunned, and immediately accompanied by a smiling face, wanting to calm things down, but obviously these people didn't want to let him go.
"You dog meat sellers are simply unconscionable, do you know that dogs are also living beings, and they also need to be cared for!"
"Don't you have a little love, that's dog meat, what's the difference between selling dog meat and selling human flesh, won't you be condemned in your heart?"
"It's people like you that our harmonious society has been destroyed!"
Among them, Cao Qiang's head is getting more and more painful, he knows that if he doesn't find the dog again, he will want to live in peace, so he immediately jumped to his feet and shouted with the crowd, and the loudest bark was loudest.
"You sell dog meat, how can there be so many meat sources, dogs are not coming in the right way, my dog was lost a few days ago, I suspect that it was stolen by you, even if it is not, it was sold to you, let us go in and search!"
Among the others, there were also many people who had lost their dogs, and when they heard this, they did not want to delay any longer, so they wanted to rush into the store and save the poor puppies.
"No, no, those are the edible dogs I bought, if you take them away, I won't pay for death." The shopkeeper hurriedly blocked the door, and he was so nervous that he wouldn't let people in.
"Dogs are friends of humans, how can they be eaten, it seems that you really have a lot of dogs hidden here, no matter, let's rush in!"
After all, the shopkeeper was weak, and in the shouting, he was pushed aside.
The crowd swarmed up, and the sharp-eyed ones found the back door, and immediately rushed forward, and most of the people who were in a hurry to find the dog ignored it and followed closely.
At this moment, some excited shouts from the side caused them to stop and look over.
"Say, are you eating dog meat?" It was a dog-loving woman in the group, and she saw a boy of six or seven years old in the corner and immediately pounced.
The child was holding a small piece of meat in his hand, and his small eyes still looked ignorant, and he looked at the crazy aunt in front of him in fear, and the chewing in his mouth stopped.
"You are talking, do you know that it is wrong to eat dog meat, listen to Auntie's words, you can't do this in the future, what is the difference between this and bad people committing crimes." Maybe it was because she saw that the child was frightened, although the woman's voice was soft, she didn't want to let go of this opportunity to warn the child, and in this contradiction, her face and tone became extremely gloomy.
The child seemed to have entered another world at this moment, a strange world different from his imagination, his little face turned pale, looking at the strange aunt in front of him who was holding his shoulder, as if looking at a demon, his little heart finally collapsed, looking in the direction of the shopkeeper, crying loudly for help.
